The ICC has identified the window and conveyed it to member boards, though the full schedule is yet to be finalised, reported ESPNCricinfo.

The format will be the same as the 2024 T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the USA, where the 20 teams were divided into four groups of five each, followed by a Super Eight stage and the semifinals.

Italy have secured their maiden berth as 15 teams -- defending champions India, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, South Africa, the US, West Indies, New Zealand, Pakistan, Ireland, Canada, the Netherlands -- have been confirmed for the ICC event.
